Chapter 876: The candidate for correspondence
Although there are still no vacancy for the official vacancies to be made up for the time being, Zheng Yougui is still just a white-clothed documentary, but he has been smiling all these days. What he is most grateful for is that Wang Fulin actually told him that he would stay in the Censorate for a year and a half. Of course, he is willing to follow Wang Fulin to any yamen, but the Censorate is the place where he is used to doing things, so it would be best if he doesn't leave. Following Wang Fulin, he has plenty of money and is decent in his hands, and even the few officials who did not take him seriously in the past. Now, seeing Hu Quan and Liu Wanfeng are both polite to him, they must call him Brother Zheng.
On that day, he walked into a straight room with brisk steps. Seeing Wang Jiguang looking up at him, he saluted and said, "Wang Shiyu, Master Zhangdao, please come over."
Wang Jiguang didn't say much and immediately stood up. He had a serious illness before, but he learned that his family was not in good condition. He looked haggard and thin. What made him even more uncomfortable was that Wang Fulin hired Zhu Zongji, a famous imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital, and even gave him a medical bill. Even though he was likely to lose his seat because he was recuperating at home, he earned him a full month of sick leave.
During this month, Wang Fulin actually supported the daily affairs of the entire Guangdong Road with three people, including himself. In addition to daily affairs, impeachment or reporting, even recommendations did not make Guangdong Road seem like everyone else in the entire Censorate.
At this point, he knew very well that he now owed Wang Fulin a favor that he would never pay for in his whole life, and everyone knew it. If he did anything to let his superiors down in the future, he would be afraid that the spit of the people in the Censorate could drown him. He was a little utilitarian, wanted to become famous and wanted to climb up, but when he initially stepped on Wang Fulin's upward thoughts, he found that his boss had a background, money, ability and ability. If he was strong and worked alone, the consequence might be that he would be ruined and had nothing. It would be better to hold a thick thigh.
Therefore, when he came to Wang Fulin, he no longer had the faint confrontation he had in the past, but saluted respectfully: "Master Zhangdao."
"Zi Shan, look at this."
Although Wang Fulin is not inclined to the only three censors left by Guangdong Road, and it seems to be equal to others. However, the others have not made any major mistakes in him. Whether it is praise or criticism, they are just very ordinary relationships between superiors and subordinates. But Wang Jiguang is different. After being criticized by him, he instructed him to overturn the walls of the Zhang family. This time he was seriously ill, he took the rescue again. So, when he encountered something, he naturally thought of it first, which was to let Wang Jiguang take the lead.
Seeing that Wang Jiguang took the piece of paper he handed over and carefully looked at it at least three times, he then asked, "What do you think?"
Before, Wang Fulin sent people to beat Chen Liang and Guo Bao to the point of being beaten by Zhang Juzheng. When he was visiting Zhang Grand Secretary's Mansion at night, he used the excuse of Cheng Naixuan sending a letter from Liaodong. Now, Cheng Naixuan asked the book Tong Moxiang to work hard to send him a private message that explained the whole story, and also made Li Chengliang's attitude. The military department who went to Liaodong with Cheng Naixuan had just officially sent a question book to the Tongzhengsi, but it was not the result of the formal investigation, but reported that he had found a survivor of the surrender of Zhongcha Haner's troops in Changding Fort victory.
It was the herdsmen of Chahaner's tribe who risked his life to stop Guangmao that the so-called victory in Changding Fort was a complete scam. The so-called invasion of the Tuman Khan of the Chahaner's tribe was a lie, but in fact it was Tao Chengku's killing and surrendering.
In addition to sending such a memorial, Guangmao also sent the survivor to be escorted by one of his followers and Liaodong General Li Chengliang, who would wait for the reply from the capital at Shanhaiguan. At the same time, Li Chengliang's question book had just been sent, and he said with a stern expression that the person Guangmao found was just a spy.
"There are more and more great achievements in killing and surrendering in ancient times." Wang Jiguang sneered contemptuously at first, then seemed to notice his own loss of composure, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Master Zhangdao asked me to see this, but what are the instructions?"
"Prince Zongxian summoned me to come over and showed me this copy of Guangmao's inquiries. This matter should be spreading wildly in the entire capital later. The Prime Minister of the Cabinet meant that the Censorate sent someone to send him to take the guy who Guangmao sent back to the capital for investigation. Zongxian asked me to recommend someone, and I will ask your opinion now. Although you mentioned that you are good at riding a horse, you have just recovered from a serious illness. The journey from the capital to Shanhaiguan is not very far, but not close. More importantly, the road may not be peaceful. If you are willing, I will recommend you. If you are unwilling, I will let Wang Xuezeng go."
If this was just when he entered the Censorate and was eager to try it, Wang Jiguang's first reaction was to think about an important task from the sky hitting his forehead. Is there any problem? Then he considered whether Wang Fulin had a trap for him again, but now he almost didn't need to think about it. He nodded directly and agreed readily: "Don't worry, Lord Zhangdao, my illness has been cured. Otherwise, even for the sake of my future, I would listen to Doctor Zhu and stay at home. I am the most old in Guangdong. Who would I go?"
Wang Fulin did not comment on Wang Jiguang's words. In fact, the one who was most suitable to go to Liaodong at the beginning was not Guangmao, but him, but since he already knew that this victory might be a mess and was too lazy to argue with the Li family father and son, he simply volunteered to take action and stuff Cheng Naixuan. Now that Guangmao has found a fish that has missed the net as soon as he goes, how could he believe that things are so coincidental? You know, although Li Chengliang has managed Liaodong into his own back garden, it is just like Liu Tai, an inspector, who used to be a censor, and now it may not be really a piece of iron bucket.
However, if he should remind him, he would rather remind Wang Jiguang.
"You don't have to hurry on the road, but you can't be too slow. The Jinyiwei will also send someone to follow you in this matter." Seeing Wang Jiguang's surprise at first, he frowned immediately, and Wang Fulin said in a deep voice, "This is the emperor's intention, and the emperor's intentions of Eunuch Feng and the Prime Minister. Do you understand? So, this is not an agreement, but a decision that has been decided that cannot be changed. However, you are the official censor of the Censorate, so you don't have to be polite with those Jinyiwei. You must know that this trip is mainly about you. No matter whether they have higher official positions than you, they have to listen to you."
This time, Wang Jiguang immediately stretched his eyebrows. Although the factory was always the object of hatred by civil servants, as long as the civil servants who were interested in their reputations, they would not show any timidity in front of these guys. Moreover, since he had the title of being the main person, he would not have to worry about anything. He was not worried about his own safety. If the presiding censor had any problems on the road, it would be a major event that shocked the world. The whole Shilin would be in a mess. The more troublesome one was the prisoner who sent people to the capital to live or die!
"Can Lord Zhang Dao tell me who is the leader of the Jinyiwei this time?"
"The Jinyiwei is the leader of Guo Bao, a hundred households in charge of punishment. I have had several dealings with him when I was in charge of the three courts. This person is quite cautious. You don't have to worry that he will rely on his duties in the Beizhen Fushi Department to point fingers at you."
Although he asked Liu Bo to inquire with Chen Liang before, he found that the Jinyiwei did not know much about the matter in Liaodong, after all, the 13th Division of the Jinyiwei was located in the 13th Division of the General Secretary, and the Liaodong Metropolitan Division was a military-controlled place and did not have a branch of the Jinyiwei, but this time Guo Bao took action himself. While he was a little relieved, he had to worry about another consequence.
Because as long as Guo Bao knew that the person sent by the Censorate this time was the supervisory and censor of Guangdong Road, he would definitely cooperate wholeheartedly. However, as long as there was a problem with this trip, Wang Jiguang and Guo Bao would turn in together, which means he had made two losses in a row!
After this thought flashed through Wang Fulin's mind, he said in a stronger tone: "The road from the capital to Shanhaiguan in Beizhili was used from the post road that was used in the early Ming Dynasty to the present. It is different from the road from Tianjin to Beitang, Kaiping Zhongtunwei, Luanzhou, Changli, and Shanhaiguan, which some merchants often travel to. This road that has to pass through many cities is a post station. I will give you another person, take him with me, and when passing by Yuyang Post in Jizhou, he will send him a letter to Qi Dashui, Santunying, Jizhen."
Seeing that Wang Jiguang had just thought for a moment, he asked nothing and agreed directly. Wang Fulin further explained: "Since Guangmao and Cheng Naixuan have gone to Liaodong, they naturally said that the court had some questions about the victory. Li Chengliang was the wisest person. He should know that instead of covering up at this time, it would be better to explain the matter clearly. He also reported the victory in the court because he reported the victory. It was not that he killed himself and defeated the punishment of a mistake. But if the person you were escorting had a problem within the scope of Jizhen after you took over at Shanhaiguan, how many parties would you think it would be involved?"
After Wang Jiguang had done stupid things, he was no longer blinded by interests, so he naturally became much smarter. Thinking that if he had traveled all the way and failed to bring the person back intact, he, the censor, would have been lowered by the evaluation, but he could not hold back the question in his heart: "But, bringing this person to the capital alive and exposing in public that Tao Chengku was a killing surrender and provoking merit. Isn't this better? Why does Master Zhangdao think that someone would intercept and kill in the second half of the way to enter the pass?"
"Before entering the pass, it was in Liaodong. If there was any problem, it was not Li Chengliang's fault, but Li Chengliang's fault. Therefore, Li Chengliang personally sent troops to escort him, and there would be no mistake. Once he entered the pass, if this person arrived in the capital properly, there was another possibility, that is, when he told the so-called truth, people with great importance in the court, such as Eunuch Feng, Master Chief, the Minister of the Six Ministry, the Minister of the Six Ministry, and the General Xian and the Secretary of the Censorate, did not believe that kind of rhetoric. After all, to prove that he and the dead Chahaner tribe really stole Tuman Khan's cattle and horses and wanted to surrender, what about physical evidence? What about human evidence? Since such a guy may be questioned when he arrived in the capital, or even thrown aside and discarded him, can he give Li Chengliang a living mouth or will he die after entering the pass, and it is easier for Li Chengliang to be unlucky?"
Wang Jiguang felt his heart sinking, but the next moment, he heard Wang Fulin ask again: "Everyone already knows that this trip may not be so peaceful, do you still dare to go?"
If Wang Fulin had said directly from the beginning that this trip might be dangerous, Wang Jiguang might have hesitated, but at this moment, he had heard Wang Fulin analyze the interests of each sect clearly and know the risks, but he knew that this was also a great opportunity for him to become famous. If Wang Fulin had been ill before and thought of Gu Yuncheng or Wang Xuezeng, he would not have this opportunity!
So he immediately responded with sternness: "Master Zhangdao, since you dare to recommend me, I will naturally dare to go. Don't worry, I will bring you the letter you sent to DaShi Ji."
As long as Qi Jiguang is willing to send someone to escort, what else is he afraid of? That is the invincible Qi family army!
"Very good, you prepare immediately, I'll repay Lord Zongxian."
Because he had already gone to two military departments to serve, Zhang Juzheng appointed the Censorate to issue a person this time. The first thing that the left censor Chen Xu thought of was Wang Fulin. But when he thought about it, this was just an errand job to pick up people at Shanhaiguan. It was a waste of talent. He signaled Wang Fulin to recommend someone. When he heard that it was Wang Jiguang, he still didn't understand it, but since Wang Fulin promised that Wang Jiguang could be competent, he reported his doubts. Soon the cabinet vote was proposed and the Sili Supervisor's reply was announced.
It's actually checked!
Although he didn't know if it was because the person recommended by Wang Fulin, the superiors had just taken the lead, or if Wang Jiguang was very satisfied with Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, Chen Xu didn't think much about it. He quickly summoned Wang Jiguang himself and gave him a good command. Especially when it came to the Jinyiwei's accompanying, he was much more nervous than Wang Fulin's calm attitude. He repeatedly told Wang Jiguang to be cautious and not to have conflicts with the Jinyiwei people, and even suggested that it would be better to let these people rush forward when encountering trouble, so that when Wang Jiguang retreated from the main hall of the Censorate, he had to try his best to hide the trace of disdain.
Wang Fulin, the censor in charge of Taoism, does not care about the Jinyiwei at all. You, Chen Yu, is the Zuodu Censor, and are you still afraid that the censor under your command will have a conflict with the Jinyiwei?
On that night, Chen Liang hurriedly sent a message from Wang Fulin to Guo Bao, who was about to leave tomorrow. When he heard Wang Fulin's instructions that he would meet up with someone at Shanhaiguan, he must not rush to escort people into the customs, but must be careful of various emergencies and wait for Jizhen to send troops to escort them and then leave together, Guo Bao was very surprised.
Even if he really killed the surrender and made a contribution, Li Chengliang would be a punishment for misunderstanding. Everyone knows that Liaodong cannot live without Li Chengliang, and Zhang Juzheng also trusts this Liaodong general. Tao Chengqi is just a general who wants to kill someone to silence him and do this in Liaodong. Will he wait until he enters Shanhaiguan before taking action?
However, he was suspicious and quickly figured it out.
